British and Irish talent were celebrated during the 2023 Oscar nominations reveal this afternoon (24th January).
A number of stars from Britain and Ireland were highlighted as part of the Academy Awards 2023 announcement, hosted by M3gan actress Alison Williams and Sound of Metal star Riz Ahmed.
The Banshees of Inisherin picked up nine nods across the board, including Best Director British-Irish playwright Martin McDonagh, Best Film and Best Original Screenplay.
Colin Farrell will hope to continue his awards season luck at the Oscars with his Leading Actor nomination, while Brendan Gleeson and Barry Keoghan will battle it out in the Supporting Actor category. Actress Kerry Condon also scored in the Supporting Actress list.
Normal People star Paul Mescal has picked up his first-ever Oscar nomination for his Leading Actor role in Aftersun, while Brit Bill Nighy will face off with Paul, Brendan Fraser and Austin Butler in the same category.
A surprise entry came from Andrea Riseborough, who made the list for Best Actress in a Leading Role for her turn in To Leslie.
The drama film also stars Allison Janey and Marc Maron, and centres around a Texas mother who, after winning the lottery, finds herself homeless and struggling with addiction only a few years later.
It wasn’t just in acting categories that British and Irish talents found success, as Charlie Mackesy’s beloved animation The Boy, The Mole The Fox and The Horse landed a nomination in the best Animated Short Film, less than a month after airing on the BBC over Christmas.
Across the board, Everything, Everywhere All At Once led the full nominations with 11 in total, with German war epic All Quiet on the Western Front and The Banshees of Inisherin coming in second with nine.
Meanwhile, Top Gun: Maverick scored three nominations in the main categories, with a nod in the Best Film list alongside The Fabelmans, Tár and Avatar: The Way of Water.
Austin Butler scored his first Academy Award nomination for his starring role as Elvis in the 2022 biopic.
Speaking of the Leading Actor list, Brendan Fraser continues his comeback tour with a nod in the category for The Whale.
The 2023 Academy Awards will be held on Sunday 12th March at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.
